first of all, i thought the d16y8 was only found in the civic ex for the most part, hence the dx has the same set-up, just without vtec.

Second of all, i'm not a fan of centrifigual supercharges, especially ones that are located in the bumper. IMO, it's dumb because you only get your max power at redline, because obviously if you ran too much boost at a low rpm, you would end up overboosting at redline. Doesn't sound very streetable to me if you need power
down low.

lastly, i love the fact that when you look on the dash, the maintenance required light is in the red.... you think they'd be able to schedule regular maintenance before starting a fabricated forced induction project
